Hi Kathy, I think you might be talking about Circus Vargas? In case anyone is interested I do know a little about it:) It was originally a circus called Miller and Johnson and my father's first cousin, Clifford Vargas, worked his way up in that circus and eventually owned it and renamed it Circus Vargas. Clifford passed away over 20 years ago but the owners have kept the name. It was great fun wihen my children were growing up, to be able to go to "our" family circus! So Clifford's roots, as mine, are from Castelo Branco, Faial. He used to be interviewed quite a bit and I have at least one news clipping in which he stated that his family had a circus in the old country……I don't think so:) Happy New Year! Bom Ano 2014!! Susan
